The film opens with a scene of absolute chaos - a set of toilet enclosures are being guarded by a group of prison inmates. However, the action is focused on the three characters inside, away from the guarded exit. And that is when the viewer truly realises what is unfolding before them.
Now, the film is premised on the question - how do inmates manage to finally lay their hands on a cellphone? The answer is meant to shock the viewer, albeit in a humorous fashion. The rest of the narrative is allowed a movement back in time, thus becoming about retracing its steps back to this moment with the toilets.
The plot introduces you to absurd, ridiculous and sometimes plain repulsive moments in the lives of these inmates who would stop at nothing to secure their phones, even if it requires them to pull those phones out of someone, quite literally. Though the film sometimes gets bogged down by a loss of tautness and pace, it is still marked by a zealous attempt to tell the story. For the viewer who sticks around till the end, there indeed awaits a reality, disturbing of a different kind, presented forth in a lighthearted manner.
